==About==

'''''The Press''''' is one project of the [[Daynal Institute]] to assist in fostering exploration of the [[spiritual]] counterpart of advancing [[material]] [[knowledge]] and temporal [[wisdom]]. As such, the scope of the Press includes work across a range of subjects in the [[Humanities]] and [[The Sciences|Sciences]] to explore the limitless range of [[facts]], [[meaning]]s, and [[values]] implicit in the question of “who are we” as [[Human being|human being]]s to have taken upon ourselves the name- [[Human|homo sapiens]] -the [[wisdom|wise]] and knowing one.

The Press is a web-integrated endeavor embracing the Internet as a primary distribution network and [[Open Source]] applications as the most effective tools for creative collaboration. Consequently, while the Press makes provision for the physical production and distribution of discrete media products in various [[text]], audio, or video formats for purchase through resellers, these resources may be found freely available in the [[Nordan Corpora]] where readers can be referred directly to related material on the [[World Wide Web]] that is a material extension of our shared endowment of [[cosmic]] [[mind]].

==Editorial==

==Featured Publications==
−
The [[editorial]] work of the Press is conducted on a volunteer basis applying our resources to long range projects often requiring a broad scale of [[collaboration]] over many years. Nonetheless, we welcome individual projects that are consonant with the [[purpose]] of fostering a [[consciousness]] of our spiritual nature to [[illumine]] "the spiritual counterpart of advancing material knowledge."

We make our work freely available in the [[Nordan Corpora]] on the World Wide Web where it can be linked directly to any related work offered to the public via the Internet. We also utilize extensive trading relationships to facilitate commercial [[distribution]] of our physical products.

==Scriptorium==
  −
The Daynal Scriptorium is a private workspace for discussions of [[Author]]s, [[Readers]] and [[Editors]] contributing in various ways to the '''''[[Nordan Corpora]]''''' whose articles and discussion pages are otherwise available for public review.
     −
All volunteers work as seems appropriate to each person. Persons interested in contributing to this work are encouraged to apply for membership [http://www.nordan.daynal.org/forum/people.php?PostBackAction=ApplyForm '''''The Daynal Scriptorium here'''''] . Your application will be reviewed, and if accepted, we will gladly welcome you.

==Marketing==
+
'''''[http://press.daynal.org/catalog/america_awake.html America Awake]''''' by [[August Jaccaci]] written under the inspiration of [[Thomas Jefferson]]. It was the Press' first trade paperback book '''''pubished in 2008''''', It is a prophetic cry to envision a new cosmology extending the ideals of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_democracy direct democracy] to an emerging world seeking a "more perfect union" rooted in the knowledge of the limitless value of each citizen.
−
Associates of the Press possess an extensive range of [[experience]] with the marketing [[strategies]] of traditional commercial and [[academic]] publishers that rely so heavily on a [[culture]] of 'push' to force sales of unwanted product that too often is simply used for decoration and then returned. We find more sustainable the culture of 'pull' using the Internet as a primary distribution network and electronic communications as the best medium for circulating material to stimulate sales in the appropriate [[audience]]. In this way, the unique [[gravity]] of each work will define the extent to which we employ a network of publicists and sales professionals in an efficient and rewarding manner.

Since then, two editions, a [http://www.press.daynal.org/catalog/helianx_proposition_trade.html trade hardcover] and a [http://www.press.daynal.org/catalog/helianx_proposition_slipcase.html slipcased edition]. were  '''''published  in September 2014'''''. The book was in preparation for over 30 years and is a uniquely beautiful example of the book as a work of art, weaving visual and narrative artistry together in the course of exploring an alternative creation myth.
